Douglas 4-H Summer Program Nutrition Week 5

Nutrition week 5

This week in our nutrition class we had the students complete the milk challenge. The kids had opportunity to taste three different types of milk that varied in fat content. We offered them 3 choices: skim, 2%, and whole milk. After revealing the answers, most of the children preferred choice A:  skim milk. Other students did not seem to find the difference in all three. With that said, we found that the kids would not mind to drink skim milk instead of 2%, whole, or whichever type their parents provide for them at home. In fact, a few were more than happy to notify their parents about the healthier alternative -- skim milk.
